    I do not.  I only know how much max power the current fan uses at full RPM.  I don't have the spec sheet for the connector itself.

    Yeah, I'm also using the fan max consumption as a baseline, which is 0.22 amps, and the two noctua fans I want to add use 0.12 amps each, so I'm 0.02 amps short, shouldn't break anything right? 😬

    Also seems like you missed my edit giving you the pinout.

     

    My post is correct (it's directly from the data sheet).

    Yes indeed I did lol, would you mind sharing the data sheet?

    If you think throwing a Noctua in there is going to be an improvement because it's "quieter", keep in mind that the static pressure of the Noctua is much lower at the same RPM, the PSU is going to run hotter and the fan controller will spin the Noctua faster to compensate, leaving you with the end result of an even louder PSU than what you started with

    It's more a matter of keeping the original aesthetic and what actually fits, thank you so much for the pinout! Given the form factor of the G5, I think an airflow optimized fan would be better, the G5 power supply looks more like a Flex ATX PSU, the 2 fans would be throwing fresh air from the front

    And control it with the SF750 fan controller?  That's going to sound like a jet engine.

    It would be keeping the G5 spirit then lol ;)

    If you've got some LEDs and resistors sitting around you could try this method: https://electronics.stackexchange.com/a/8303

     

    Sure the question concerns 3-pin fans. But once you've found out which wire is used for sending the RPM signal it should be easy to figure which pin receives the PWM signal.

     

    Alternatively, according to this PDF you could just poke it with the DMM: https://www.glkinst.com/cables/cable_pics/4_Wire_PWM_Spec.pdf

    I'll try the method from the PDF later, seems interesting, sadly I don't have LEDs laying around and I can't get some because of the quarentine :(

    Why?  The fan is already a PWM fan.

     

    I want to fit this PSU inside the PSU box of the Power Mac G5, there's place for 2x 60mm fans inside, so the idea is to connect 2 noctua fans to the PSU for cooling

    I forget what the connector is called but you can definitely get an adapter for that. I had used one on a GPU when I replaced the cooler with an AIO.

    Thanks everyone for your prompt reponse, yes @AHaskin14 I agree with you it's definitly the mini GPU PWM connector my concern is more about the pinout that seems to be none standard.

    For example, with this adapter wouldn't it be sending +12v to the ground wire acording to the readings from my multimeter?

    @DildorTheDecent as seen from this and the readings from my multimeter, aren't the +12v and ground cables flipped on the PSU?

  5. Hello everyone, I have plans to mod my Corsair SF750 to use a PWM fan (actually 2), however I notice that the cabling on the fan that comes with the PSU it's not "standard". Connecting my multimeter with black wire as ground and green wire to the positive lead show +12v, is this the standard pinout for this connector? I think it uses the mini PWM connector from GPUs. Does anyone has any idea how I can determine which wire from the remaining 2 is the PWM signal and which one is the sense signal?

    Any help is apreciated, thanks!

  6. I am keeping it mind that the 2080 ti it's immensely faster than a V64, but it's also way more expensive. Vega VII would be the best choice but sadly it's not available on local stores. The system it's supposed to last at least 5 years, the real question is if the Vega 64 is a good card kind of by itself, without comparisons and would be usable for the next 5 years.

  7. Hello everyone, looking around at a amazon-like local website I came across a MSI RX Vega 64 Wave at $329 new, and I'm wondering if at that price point it's worth it, I'm looking forward to build a CAD/rendering first machine with an 8086k, and gaming second, I'll also would like to maybe convert it to a hackintosh at some point. I was actually planning to go for a cheap version RTX 2080 ti, but this Vega 64 at this price point seems like a really good value to me. Any advice is welcome!

    I've been using the Windows 10 desktop version of WhatsApp for quite a while now. The app has stopped showing desktop notifications - both the banner that flashes and also the highlight in Action Center. Is this an isolated issue just for me or do other users face the same as well? I can still hear the notification sound, but can't see the desktop notification banner. Both these alerts used to be functional when the app got launched..

     

    Also,

    1. I have checked all notification settings in Windows - all app notifications are allowed and priorities set to their defaults.

    2. WhatsApp desktop notifications are enabled in the app's settings page.

     

    I also tried installing the downloadable version from WhatsApp's website and also the UWP version from Windows store (I hope "WhatsApp for Desktop" with a weird thumbnail for the desktop icon is the official one). Both the versions seem to carry this bug now. Any solutions?

     

    All the other apps that have their notifications enabled work fine. Windows 10 - reset and multiple re-installations of the said apps have no effect either. Let me know how or if it works for you guys (assuming people use this XD)

     

    Praveen.

    Last time I used the downloadable version, windows notifications worked, no luck on the UWP version though
